Events › No Place to Grow Old - Screening and Panel Discussion

Join us in the Rogers Room from 6:00 - 7:30 on Wednesday, November 5th, for a free screening of the 2024 documentary, No Place to Grow Old, a film that captures a growing crisis unfolding quietly across America: the increasing number of seniors facing homelessness. Set in Portland, Oregon, this poignant documentary follows the lives of three older adults navigating the harsh realities of life without a home. Through their stories of hardship and resilience, the film offers an intimate portrayal of the challenges they face, while also shining a light on the systemic issues contributing to their plight.

After the viewing, representatives from Open Door, Project Homeless Connect, and the Forest Grove Foundation will participate in a panel discussion to explore the topic of homelessness in Washington County and its impact on older populations the region. 

This event is free, but preregistration is required and capacity is limited to 50 seats.
